@det Do they show patterns of automated behavior? o.O

@det I still find it troublesome how you try to conflate fiction with real child porn.

You went onto instances with a vast number of users and scanned around half a million posts to discover a few possible cases of real child porn.

Alright, so a few people are trying to abuse a service. It's still neither proportionate or respectful of free expression to engage in censorship.

It also wouldn't eliminate people trying to abuse a service, any service, or creating their own service, to engage in their abhorrent activities.

It should be noted that there are other instances which go further than that particular one (if I've guessed right) in tackling this, without the censorship.

These ones are also more communicative.

No instance, or it's users, would want this content on there. If you can offer your wisdom into bad actors, that is welcome.

Rather than writing dry hit pieces, they could instead, I dunno, talk to admins to tell them about cases they know of of this?

No one likes a "clever" guy lecturing them from up above.

Ire about the fediverse originates primarily from right wing figures who are really upset about the fact that people are not jumping up and down in excitement in response to Elon acquiring Twitter.

I'm reading a really weak hit piece about the fediverse. What strikes me is just how little actual child porn there actually is. When you consider the scale of both instances and networks, the number is essentially nil.

They really had to snip random things out of context to try to pretend there is a "problem". They still failed.

It's not hard to figure out why Q aligned people are so concerned about what might or might not have happened at the Kinsey.

It's because they're upset about pornography, the acceptance of homosexuality, and other forms of social liberation. Reading some posts of theirs shows that.

And they blame the researchers who work at Kinsey for that.

The 50s weren't exactly a good time for ethics.

Supposedly, the U.S. Government carried out experiments involving STDs and psychological torture they called "mind control experiments" (MKUltra).

There were also inhumane experiments on criminals, MIT feeding people radioactive oats, and more.

At the end of the day though, while there might be something to be learned, whatever happened in the 50s has little bearing on the modern day.

Unless, of course, you're a Q conspiracist who sees everything as some sort of conspiracy.

The argument would generally be that they just wouldn't get these people, if they did go around reporting it, and that there is scientific value to it.

That's not an argument which I'm making here, although it's unsurprising that standards might have been different in the past.

In order to whet the appetites of Q enthusiasts, the Australian guy is now dredging up what some researcher at Kinsey in Indiana might have done back in the 50s (when ethics at plenty of universities were a fair bit dodgier).

For instance, he is upset that someone collected survey data from a child abuser without reporting them to the police.

He ignores that not only was research ethics in plenty of universities a fair bit dodgier, but that, researchers in Germany have been known to withhold reports from German police in modern times, for the sake of research.

He then peeks at some unsubstantiated and sketchy claims. That is the core of it though.

It's awfully convenient to go after a researcher who has been dead for around 60 - 70 years and to ignore anyone who might actually defend themselves...?

If Twitter decides to launch a video offering to compete with YouTube, they should consider calling it "X Videos".

Lol.

The magic truck that sends you to reincarnate in a fantasy world filled with magic, dragons, you being overpowered, and lots of cute girls.

Can Goku overcome it?

It's nice to see some people opposing KOSA (although, you can never have too many opposing authoritarianism like this).

@fandompost This pose. Is this Mushoku Tensei... Or Shingeki no Kyojin...?

@freemo "later changed its name to paypal" Looks like he was never fond of that.
